Make IE6 respect width (CSS)

Here’s what happens: IE 6 doesn’t understand !important, IE6 doesn’t know what min-height is, IE6 doesn’t care about height or width, it enlarges the container, as much as needed to fit content (css for ie6: min-height = height). So we set auto height for normal browsers, then add height for ie6 (acts like min-height) and true min-height for normal browsers.

If IE6 doesn’t respect the height/width, what do we do when we need it to have fixed Height/Width CSS properties?
